PAS defends the 'military' attire of its volunteer corps, dismisses protests from Patriot

PETALING JAYA: PAS has defended the military-style attire of its volunteer corps, following complaints by the veterans group National Patriots Association (Patriot) over its uniforms that resembled the ceremonial "No. 1 dress" of the Armed Forces.

Online portal Malaysiakini reported that PAS secretary-general Takiyuddin Hassan had dismissed claims made by Patriot, claiming that the group had "run out of issues" to talk about.
